Today. I think my brain went on vacation a few days early.
First, I called Visa to question the reward points calculation on my statement. It was pretty obvious after the young woman explained it, and kinda funny when I got it, but boy, for a minute there I felt like a complete dunce.
Then, knowing I had to go to the grocery store, I started making a list of what I needed. At the top of the list was dropping a book at the library that I had finished. Finally ready, I got in the car, drove out to the main road, and went left instead of right. OK. I can drop the book off on my way home. NBD.
Get to the grocery store and look for the list. Can't find it. Figure I must have left it at home, though I was sure I put it in my purse. So, up and down every aisle looking at items and trying to make sure I don't forget anything essential. Check out. Reach into my coat for my keys and 'guess what'? List. I never put lists in my coat so I never though to look there. Luckily, I had remembered everything, so to speak.
These senior moments happen more and more, but I think the bigger problem is the constant multi-tasking all of us try to do. I am sure you have all started out doing one thing in one room and, thirty minutes later, you have not accomplished it, but have started ten other things.
Hopefully, when I finish this post, I will remember what brought me into the computer room in the first place.
